[quote=Anonymous]Hi! I think your son sounds like a perfectly normal child. I think sometimes we expect too much rigid expectations from a young child. Children are children, and therefore they will wiggle, squirm, and sometimes lash out at others. As a mama to six kids (3 of which are special needs), I really don't think you have anything to worry about. You sound like a very attentive mother, and it sounds like you are handling these issues appropriately as they come. If you are still concerned, it never hurts to have a child psychologist evaluate your child. If nothing else, it will provide you peace of mind. I would also suggest some cognitive behavioral therapy to help him come up with coping mechanisms when he is upset. You are doing a great job, mama! [/quote]
